Description:

Study Abroad Week Event for Students Committed to 2025–2026 Programs

Are you feeling a little nervous about navigating your program’s country because of the language barrier? Or maybe, are you already proficient—or almost there? No matter where your language skills are right now, you’re eligible to earn credits towards Global Honors and Language Proficiency Certificates!

Please join us for this session led by the Chicago Language Center. We’ll share tips for making the most of the language learning opportunities and international engagement during your Study Abroad experience. All of that can lead to your being able to achieve the Global Honors distinction or to being eligible to take proficiency tests from the Office of Language Assessment to show the world what you can do with language. This lively session will be full of information that will not only enhance and expand your experience abroad, but also give you lasting credentials for career and other real-world opportunities.
